<em>Carbon 14 change back into the stable nuclei Nitrogen by </em><em>emitting electron and electron antineutron.</em>

<u>Explanation:-</u>

Carbon 14 is one of the radioactive isotope elements that contains 6 protons and 8 neutron elements.

A general chemical reaction of Carbon 14 is given below.

14_{6} C \rightarrow 14_{7} N+B e t a^{-1}

This above reaction can be categorized under Nuclear Reaction. When atomic number 6 (Carbon) was irradiated, Beta ray emission happen and new stable nuclei with atomic number 7 (Nitrogen) formed without change in atomic mass of any nuclei. As well as some amount of energy also emitted through this reaction.

Answer:  an electron and an electron antineutrino, one of the neutrons in the carbon-14 atom decays to a proton and the carbon-14 (half-life of 5,700 ± 40 years) decays into the stable (non-radioactive) isotope nitrogen-14.

Neutrons: 8

Isotope mass: 14.003241 u

a gas that exerts a pressure of 215 torr in a container with a volume of 51.0 mL will exert a pressure of ? torr when transferre
zhannawk [14.2K]
To calculate the new pressure, we can use Boyle’s law to relate these two scenarios (Boyle’s law is used because the temperature is assumed to remain constant). Boyle’s law is:

P1V1 = P2V2,

Where “P” is pressure and “V” is volume. The pressure and volume of the first scenario is 215 torr and 51 mL, respectively, and the second scenario has a volume of 18.5 L (18,500 mL) and the unknown pressure - let’s call that “x”. Plugging these into the equation:

(215 torr)(51 mL) =(“x” torr)(18,500 mL)
x = 0.593 torr

The final pressure exerted by the gas would be 0.593 torr.

Hope this helps!

An isotonic salt solution is 0.90% (w/w) nacl in water many grams of nacl are contained in 1.00 kg of such a solution Reconstruction debate that had federalism debate that had been an issue since the 1790s.

Reconstruction failed by most other measures: Radical Republican legislation ultimately failed to isotonic former slaves from white persecution and failed to engender fundamental changes to the social fabric of the South. When President Rutherford B. federalism debate that had been an issue since the 1790s almost mediately . Hayes removed federal troops from isotonic South in 1877, former Confederate officials and slave returned to With the support of a conservative Supreme Court, these newly empowered white southern politicians passed black codes, voter qualifications, and other anti-progressive legislation to reverse the rights that blacks had gained during Radical Reconstruction. The U.S. Supreme Court bolstered this federalism anti-progressive movement federalism  with decisions in the Slaughterhouse Cases, the Civil Rights Cases, and United States v.
